Betting

JOIN THE EXCITEMENT

Betting is as old as
horse-racing itself. Nothing is more exciting than trusting your luck to the
speed of a horse and the experience of a jockey.
Do you want to cheer on the
powerful animals as they gallop over the turf, spurred on by the determination
of their jockeys? Then try your luck. It is quite simple.

how do i place a bet?

Choose "your"
horse. The
racing programme contains detailed information about the horses and their
chances of winning. It covers everything in relation to
"favourites" and "outsiders".

The odds of winning are shown and
constantly updated on the monitors. The sweepstake favourites can be seen from
the odds. With place bets, by contrast, the amounts are shown for each horse.

If you do not want to go by the tips
and information in the racing programme or the odds then you select by name,
rider or number. The best approach is to form your own impression of the horses
and jockeys in the parade ring.

Decide whether you want to place
a win or place bet.
An
explanation of the different types of bets can be found in our betting
guide.

Decide on the amount you want to
bet and place your bet at the counter.Enter
the relevant information in the following order:
1) Type
of bet
2)
Number(s) of horse(s) in the race
3)
Amount you would like to bet The stake is CHF 2.00 (basic stake) or a
multiple of two.

If you would like to place a bet for
a later race, first enter the number of the race.

With a bit of luck you can then
collect your winnings from the counter.

Your winnings will be paid out after
the odds have been announced by the speaker. The odds indicate the winnings for
every Swiss franc bet, and the less is bet on the horse, the higher the stakes.
Multiply the amount you bet by the odds to find out how much you have won.

When you collect your winnings, you
can place your bets for the next race there and then. The new bet will then be
automatically deducted from your winnings.

The
Swiss Derby was held for the first time in 1981 on the 1500-meters long
racecourse in Frauenfeld and has since been regarded as one of the most
important and most prestigious horse race in Switzerland, with a prize money of 75'000 Swiss Francs.
